JournalismCareers.com relaunched
22 December 2005
I've relaunched JournalismCareers.com, including a new edition of the ebook which answers 64 of the most commonly asked questions about journalism. The relaunch includes a fresher design and new content (including some fun stuff).The new edition of the ebook comes with bonus content to help you put some of the key ideas in the ebook to work. For a promotional period, the ebook price has been discounted by a pound.
I set up JournalismCareers.com as a response to the many questions I was receiving by email from people who were researching journalism as a career. The site first launched in August 2003.
